Okay so tomorrow is officially my 6 month mark.. I seriously dont know how this even happened!! It has just flownnn by!! Anyways, we get our transfer cheese on Saturday and I'm basically guaranteed leaving so that's pretty sad. I just loveee silver city! BUT! it's okay! Becuase bishop McDonald gave me a farewell meal of sorts yesterday! He invited us and the elders over for the best of the best 24 oz. steaks. And they're cattle farmers. So they know their steak... It was pretty amazing!  So monsoon season is here!! We have had 7 straight days with rain! Tuesday was especially rainy... you couldn't even see the car infront of you and the roads were basically rivers! It was really cool though. I was supppper happy about the rain :) We also had to say goodbye to Denise, our Toyota Tacoma. We were pretty sad, but we got a 2019 Chevy equinox and lemme tell ya... its reallllllly nice. We have been enjoying it a little too much.  And! We got to go to Karen's wedding th...

hola!! It has been a crazy busy week! I wasnt feeling very good the majority of the week which made it a little hard but we kept on working, and by saturday I was feeling great again!  The highlight of our week was finding out the arbys (one of the very few restaurants here) had $1 coke floats! So we treated ourselves for working hard and got a few too many throughout the week :) Also we spoke in church yesterday which I kind of enjoyed! We have a super exciting week coming up! We have a big service project, zone confrence, baptisms with brother quinn!!, a wedding to help with, and a ton of lessons! We are legitimately booked! Like, we can not fit one more single lesson in!! So that's a pretty good feeling! Its gonna be fun!  We are also pretty stoked becuase we have a wedding this weekend for someone getting married so she can get baptized (in about a month or so), and another wedding next weekend for karen so she can get baptized on august 3rd! So its gonna be a lot of fun :...

Sooooo I talked to a guy yesterday that was convinced that jesus was a wizard... We had a nice 40 minute conversation about it, which is all I could put up with until his body odor was too much to handle... We were also at a lesson yesterday when a cop showed up to search their house.... And we had a lady with Brian damage ask us to fix her computer!.... And that's just one average day in silver city!  Can you see why I love it here so much??? Haha, but in all honesty, I have been happier this week than I can ever remeber being! We got to hear brother quinn bless the sacrament for the first time yesterday, and let's just say there were a lot of smiles and a lot of tears :')  We also had a crazy fun fourth of July! I got to go to the parade, and 3 BBQs! I ate a lotttt of yummy food and treats that day  I had a crazy fun day with hermana hafen! I laughed so hard with her, I legit think I strained my throat bc the next day it hurt so bad to laugh or smile haha... I love herm...

Hellllloooo!  Wow! It's been a crazy week! Taking over an area is definitely exhausting, but it's much easier the second time haha.... It was sooooo hard saying goodbye to sister curtis! I just love her so much and I know we are going to be good friends for a long time. But, me and sister bohrer have been getting along super great and weve been working super hard, so I am feeling good about this transfer! Well we actually had a pretty cool miracle yesterday! We spent all last week just working soooooo hard to try and find new people to teach... and we didnt find anyone! And not gonna lie, I was pretty bummed about it... but sister bohrer reminded me that our faith and hard work would pay off! And it did! So! In order for someone to be considered a reactivation, they have to come 2 times in one month... and yesterday.... the LAST possible day of the month, we had 4 people that were reactivations! Which is wayyyy exciting! And! We had 2 people that haven't been to church in y...
